      Best Zaku Sniper

      So much detail packed into one kit. Compared to the original Zaku I sniper, I highly recommend this one over it, I mean it's been released much later than the other one too so you'd expect it's joints and all be of higher quality. Pretty accurate colors straight out of the box, so just get a yellow dome sticker for the mono eye and it'll look very clean. I would be careful when painting this kit as it does contain several rubbery parts which may melt from whatever paint used.

      MUST HAVE

      Much better than the original, Unicorn versions typically are. the Kirks Zaku I sniper is probably the best looking Zaku I ever.

      Nice for a "pre-Gundam the Origin" Kit

      The level of detail and articulation of this kit is nice for a "pre-Gundam the Origin" kit, with a nice alternative weapon option. The only issues is how fragile the connection for the outer left barrel case, broke during assembly. A bit of adhesive fixed it though. Lastly there is some concern regarding the reliability of the connection for the monoeye piece, due to no enclosed housing.

      Solid kit for a fan...

      It’s a basic HG kit, but a solid one for a sniper / Yomen Kirks fan. The sniper rifle, backpack and knee gimmick are the highlights and worth it.

      Outstanding kit!

      If it weren't for the lack of an inner frame, I'd be hard pressed to tell that I wasn't building an RG or MG. There is a lot of detail packed in this kit, and some nice functional gimmicks. One of the best looking kits oob imho, and a great platform for customization.
